I run the hallman pro manual. Its like 100 bucks, and works great. Pretty much the best manual on the market. As sluggish said, running of just the gate is ok, but you may not get the boost the spring is supposed to make. Wastegate placement can play a big factor here.
id suggest running atleast a MBC.

Internal Wastegates set at 7 psi with a Blitz Electronic Boost controller.
Tried a manual boost controller and liked how it fooled the wastegates into thinking there was no boost till the preset limit. Made the boost build faster. The electronic unit seems more precise and I like the abilty to tailor the boost as needed.
A forged shortblock 370 is a the Machine shop. Once it's done, it will be great having a 8lb street setting and a 15lb "fun" setting.
